Your shoes, my shoes
Red shoes, blue shoes

Let me walk a while,
In the mind of one other than myself

Overt themes and righteousness blatant

In the mind of another, things are complacent
I get it, now, what you meant when you said "x"
and I replied "Why?"
You didn't mean it this way
You meant we should try.

There was something more there, than I first heard, alone.
I gathered a different inflection
From the use of that tone.

To walk a mile, a 10 minute affair
But I understand so much more, once I've chosen to walk there
Tumblr, Twitter, Facebook prompts; this prompt: trying a new perspective.
